feat(art): default to host-served cover art (scales to large libraries)
Adds art.mode "host" (now the default): emit each cover's local file PATH and let the host serve the bytes via its art proxy, instead of inlining a data URL. The reconcile payload carries no image data, so a large Playnite library no longer exceeds the host's request-body limit. "dataurl" (inline, small libraries) and "off" remain. Requires a host with the provider-art proxy (punktfunk main: feat/library-local-art). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

## Box art
|
||||
|
||||
Playnite stores cover art as **local files**, and the host only proxies Steam art — so this plugin
|
||||
inlines each cover as a size-capped `data:` URL that clients render directly (no network fetch).
|
||||
Playnite stores cover art as **local files** on the host. Rather than shipping image bytes in the
|
||||
reconcile (which doesn't scale — a large library blows past the host's request-body limit), the plugin
|
||||
sends the local file **path** and the host serves the cover through its art proxy
|
||||
(`/library/art/…`, exactly like Steam art). The payload stays tiny at any library size.
|
||||
|
||||
| `art.mode` | Behaviour |
|
||||
|--------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
|
||||
| `dataurl` | Embed the cover (default). `maxBytes` caps a single image; oversized covers are skipped. |
|
||||
| `host` | **Default.** Send the cover's local path; the host serves the bytes. Scales to thousands of titles. Requires a host with the provider-art proxy. |
|
||||
| `dataurl` | Inline the cover as a size-capped `data:` URL (`maxBytes` caps one image). Self-contained, but for **small** libraries only — a big one exceeds the host's body limit. |
|
||||
| `off` | Sync titles with no art (lightest payload). |
|
||||
|
||||
`art.includeBackground` additionally embeds the Playnite background as `hero` art (large — off by
|
||||
default). For a very large library, inlined covers make a heavy library payload — the console warns
|
||||
above ~3000 titles; narrow it with a source filter or set `art.mode` to `off`.
|
||||
`art.includeBackground` additionally serves the Playnite background as `hero` art (off by default).
